RBZ recues HCC on water crisis

THE Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) has agreed to rescue the Harare City Council (HCC) by providing it with foreign currency to buy water treatment chemicals to improve potable water supply in the capital.

A crucial meeting on the water situation was held last week between RBZ and HCC where RBZ governor John Mangudya was present.

Harare mayor Jacob Mafume yesterday confirmed the development to NewsDay saying RBZ also agreed to provide foreign currency to import 15 service
delivery vehicles from South Africa.
